To determine if 9416 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9416.
If the factors of 9416 are only 9416 and 1, then we know that 9416 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9416 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9416 is only divisible by 1 and 9416, then it is a prime number, and if 9416 is divisible by more than 9416 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9416 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 107, 214, 428, 856, 1177, 2354, 4708, 9416
Therefore, since 9416 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9416 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
